[00:10] Meisaku
    Huh? Wh-What is it? Who's there?
[00:12] Fairy
    I'm a fairy.
[00:13] Fairy
    I am speaking directly into your ears.
[00:16] Meisaku
    Directly into my ears?!

    Episode 223
    A Fairy's Fair-Pleas
[00:19] Meisaku
    Uh, that's normal.
[00:20] Fairy
    Oh, yeah, guess it is.
[00:22] Meisaku
    So not directly into my mind, huh?
[00:24] Fairy
    I'm speaking normally to you.
[00:26] Fairy
    Please wake up.
[00:27] Meisaku
    I'm already up.
[00:28] Fairy
    The truth is, you are...
[00:29] Fairy
    a legendary hero!
[00:31] Fairy
    I beg you, please save our world!
[00:34] Meisaku
    Oh, is that all?
[00:36] Fairy
    "Oh, is that all"?
[00:37] Meisaku
    You're from the Isekai Kingdom, right?
    We haven't been there in a while.
[00:41] Fairy
    The Isekai Kingdom?
[00:43] Meisaku
    Ah, well, we just sort of got bored, you see.
[00:46] Meisaku
    It was fun when the action was fast-paced,
     but grinding became dull...
[00:50] Fairy
    Oh.
[00:51] Meisaku
    That's why we haven't gone
     there since the summer.
[00:53] Meisaku
    We'll come visit when we have time.
[00:55] Meisaku
    Can I go back to sleep now?
[00:57] Fairy
    No, you may not!
[00:58] Fairy
    I mean, what even is the Isekai Kingdom?
[01:00] Meisaku
    Wait, you don't know?
[01:01] Meisaku
    Didn't you come through
    the vortex thing over there?
[01:03] Fairy
    What the heck? Gross.
    Why's that in your closet?
[01:06] Meisaku
    It's not my fault.
[01:08] Meisaku
    So you really don't know about it?
[01:09] Fairy
    Why should I know about something so yucky?
[01:12] Fairy
    Our world is called...
[01:13] Fairy
    the Otherworld Kingdom!
[01:13] Sign
    Otherworld Kingdom
[01:13] Sign
    Otherworld Kingdom
[01:14] Meisaku
    The Otherworld Kingdom?
[01:16] Fairy
    Our kingdom's facing a looming crisis!
[01:19] Fairy
    Please! You must come and save our world!
[01:22] Meisaku
    Wait, what?
[01:23] Meisaku
    A different quest?
[01:25] Meisaku
    You can get two world-saving
     quests at the same time?!
[01:27] Fairy
    Don't complain to me.
[01:29] Fairy
    I'm only giving you one, after all.
[01:31] Meisaku
    I'm in the process of saving
    another world, though...
[01:34] Fairy
    This other world you speak of...
    The Isekai Kingdom, was it?
[01:36] Fairy
    What happened in this kingdom
    that has such a random name?
[01:39] Meisaku
    The "Otherworld Kingdom" is
    pretty random too, if you ask me.
[01:42] Meisaku
    Well, the Isekai Kingdom's being
     threatened by the Dark Lord.
[01:45] Fairy
    The Dark Lord? And they call that a problem?
[01:48] Fairy
    Our kingdom has no time to lose!
[01:51] Meisaku
    A bigger danger than the Dark Lord?
[01:53] Meisaku
    What happened?
[01:54] Fairy
    We have...
[01:55] Fairy
    food shortages!
[01:56] Meisaku
    Food shortages?
[01:58] Fairy
    The last five years has seen a population
    boom and our food supply can't keep up.
[02:04] Fairy
    That's why we don't have
    enough food in the kingdom!
[02:07] Meisaku
    Oh.
[02:08] Fairy
    You ask what's more terrifying than
    the Dark Lord? Food shortages.
[02:11] Meisaku
    But I'm just a schoolkid!
    I can't do anything about that!
[02:14] Fairy
    That's not true.
[02:16] Fairy
    I'd like you, our hero, to operate
     a tractor and farm the land.
[02:19] Meisaku
    Just go ask a farmer!
[02:21] Fairy
    What? All right, fine.
[02:23] Fairy
    Guess I'll go find a farmer
     to operate the tractor.
[02:26] Meisaku
    Problem solved.
[02:27] Fairy
    But that's not the only
    crisis our kingdom is facing!
[02:30] Meisaku
    What else is there?
[02:30] Fairy
    A currency crisis!
[02:32] Meisaku
    Oh?
[02:32] Fairy
    Corporate investors
    did lots of short selling,
[02:35] Fairy
    and our kingdom's now in a currency crisis
    because it's unable to prop up the currency!
[02:39] Meisaku
    That's a seriously tough problem!
[02:41] Fairy
    Please, I'm begging you! Do something!
[02:43] Meisaku
    What can I possibly do? I don't
     even understand the problem.
[02:46] Fairy
    Very well. Then, our government
    and the bank will have to sort it out.
[02:49] Meisaku
    Should've gone to them first.
[02:51] Fairy
    But that's not the only crisis in our kingdom!
[02:54] Meisaku
    There's more?
[02:54] Fairy
    There was a pet boom a few years back,
[02:57] Fairy
    but lots of people are abandoning pets
    because they can no longer care for them.
[03:01] Meisaku
    Hm, that's not good.
[03:03] Fairy
    Abandoned pets turn feral and damage
     crops, causing heaps of problems.
[03:07] Fairy
    But you know, simply catching those
    animals won't solve the problem.
[03:11] Fairy
    It's the people who abandon
    pets who have to change.
[03:13] Meisaku
    That's so true.
[03:14] Fairy
    This problem can't be solved unless
    everyone in the kingdom changes their ways.
[03:18] Fairy
    So it's not a problem for you to solve, hero.
[03:20] Meisaku
    Then don't tell me about it!
[03:22] Fairy
    Was there anything else?
[03:24] Meisaku
    You don't have to force
     yourself to remember.
[03:26] Fairy
    Oh, right!
[03:27] Fairy
    My brother turned 20, but he
     doesn't go to school or work.
[03:31] Fairy
    As his older sister, I'm concerned.
[03:33] Meisaku
    Who cares?! That's a family problem.
[03:35] Fairy
    Ah, but unlike my brother,
    I have a job and a boyfriend!
[03:38] Meisaku
    Yeah, whatever. Go home and do your job.
[03:41] Fairy
    Well, this is my job.
[03:43] Meisaku
    This is your job?
[03:44] Fairy
    Well, of course!
[03:45] Fairy
    If you must know, I have
    a quota of heroes to fill.
[03:49] Fairy
    I'm supposed to bring back
     three heroes every day.
[03:52] Meisaku
    So there's more than one legendary hero?
[03:54] Fairy
    If I don't fulfill my quota,
    it affects my salary.
[03:57] Fairy
    Worst case, I could get fired.
[03:59] Meisaku
    This is taking a dark turn.
[04:00] Fairy
    Oh, hero! A new crisis!
[04:03] Fairy
    We haven't addressed the toxic
    corporations in our kingdom—
[04:06] Meisaku
    Don't care!
[04:07] Mei
    So loud...
[04:08] Meisaku
    Oh, Mei.
[04:09] Meisaku
    I'm sorry. A stranger suddenly showed up.
[04:12] Fairy
    Hold up, she's floating?
[04:13] Fairy
    A human is flying?!
[04:14] Meisaku
    Mei has supernatural powers.
[04:16] Mei
    Esper!
[04:18] Fairy
    What?!
[04:19] Fairy
    You are the legendary hero!
[04:21] Meisaku
    So wait, it can be anybody?
[04:23] Fairy
    I beg you! Please solve our problems!
[04:26] Mei
    Problems?
[04:27] Fairy
    Just one! One problem is enough!
[04:29] Meisaku
    Which problem do you want to solve?
[04:31] Fairy
    Huh?
[04:32] Fairy
    Let's see...
[04:33] Fairy
    Could you find me a new job
     that'd be perfect for me?
[04:36] Meisaku
    That's your problem!
[04:39] Narrator
    And they all lived happily ever after!
